I have had this problem on and off since upgrading to PVRX2 but now it seems to be here to stay...
None of my reoccurring recordings have been recorded for the last 3 days.
I just went to the tv guide and set a show to record. The tv guide cell turned red, the show appeared in pending recordings and I had disk activity - all looked like a recording was happening.
As the show ended it disappeared from pending recordings and that was it. Nothing in new recordings, nothing in ready, no failed recording etc. A folder was created with the show name in my tv recordings directory but was empty.
I recorded my first show last night and ran into something I was not expecting at all. Using an M780 card (1 NTSC tuner and 1 ATSC tuner) I configured GBPVR to record an ATSC channel. When the time came to record I was kicked out of Live TV view into the main menu. Trying to get back in to watch I was presented with the message that I didn't have a free tuner and could only opt to watch what I was recording or return to the menu.
My confusion comes because this card is a dual tuner card. I'm confused as to why I can't watch an NTSC show while an ATSC show is being recorded.
Is this a limitation of the card, GBPVR, or just an overall misunderstanding on my part as to what dual tuner cards are capable of?
There's something I want to record on CBBC but I'm never around when it's transmitting so can't get the Config app. to pick it up and add it to the list of channels.
I tried to hack the GB-PVR DB to use the details for BBC Three but then I remembered the Video and Audio PID information is different.
I'm not sure if the tuning info will be the same for all of the UK so if anyone in the Crystal Palace area has recently done a channel scan during the day, I'd be grateful if they'd post the tuning information for CBBC. The easiest way would be to cut and paste from one of the Scan-X.cache files.
I'm pretty comfortable navigating through GBPVR, I've read the docs and played. But sometimes my wife wants to show her mother things, while I'm not around.
Is there a skin that provides onscreen instructions? For instance, navigation through the Pictures plugin (the stock version) is not as intuitive as it could be. (You can't just click Slideshow, but have to highlight the first image, then click Slideshow.)
I was about to purchase one of these. But I was wondering if my system would be able to play the hd video back without hickups. Check out my specs down below and tell me what you think. Also let me know if any of you have the tuner, or really any HD tuner and has the same or a system with similar specs and let me know how the video looks. Thanks.
I cant seem to get my channel numbers to show in the guide on 1. 16 . Sometimes they show up sometimes they dont. Is there anyway to show Channel# + Callsign Rather than CallSign + Channel#.
Well I just finished building my pvr with windows xp and the hvr-1600 and I've installed the latest build of gbpvr (v1.0.16) and tried all weekend to get my remote to do some pretty basic stuff and just can't figure it out. Basically I Want my remote to open the gbpvr.exe when I see my desktop or while most other applications are open. I've gone into Irremote.ini and tried changing a few things such as adding:
but this did nothing. I INstalled hip but was unable to get that working and I've done other stuff and with no success. I'm attaching my whole copy of the Irremote.ini and hopefully somebody can take a look at it and see if it is the problem or it's something else.
Also when I installed my hvr-1600 it came along with wintv, could this be a possible conflict? I can change channels just fine and adjust the volume along with a few other remote functions when in gbpvr but can't turn it off or on!
